I do think Cleveland has the best chance simply because they have the type of pitching you need to succeed in the playoffs plus they have experience. I honestly would give us the lowest chances no matter what seed we get but it will still be fun to experience more playoff baseball
16 hours ago16 hr With a Houston win…Sox Magic numbers-Cle- 6, Hou-3, Tex-2, Tor-1, Bal-1Cleveland Magic numbers-Sox-5, Hou-2, Tex-2, Tor-1, Bal-0
9 hours ago9 hr Believe a white Sox win, a Rangers loss, and an Astros win does it. At that point the amount of Astros losses it would take for them to fall out of first place would eliminate them from the wild card.
7 hours ago7 hr Id rather the Sox not clinch today if it means the Astros winning. We'd be much, much better off playing Texas in the WC.

1 hour ago1 hr I'll be shocked if Houston doesn't win the West at this point. Unless Boston tanks on purpose, it will likely be: Outcome #1)White Sox (6) vs Houston (3) @ Houston in a best of 3 Wildcard series starting next Tuesday, September 29th.Outcome #2) White Sox (2) vs Cleveland (6)/Houston(3) in AL Division series starting on Saturday, October 3rd. Getting that extra rest would be HUUUUUUUUUUGE!!! C'mon Boston- WAKE UP!!

1 hour ago1 hr Do the Sox pop champagne tonight if they clinch the Wild Card? I'm worried about them losing an important day game tomorrow because they celebrated too hard tonight and the team was hungover.

Let's get a playoff spot clinched tonight and go from there.
